crime is a plague of the big cities but in a tiny arkansas town of twenty five thousand it is really getting out of hand pure gold is a property crime index of more than double the national average and rape burglary and assault are also way above average poor poor gold is a dangerous place to live in but what's the answer to living in constant fear of criminals well the mayor thinks that the answer to that problem is to live in constant fear of the government how logical the mayor and police chief have a doorstop plan to send out police patrols with a ar fifteen that will swat armor to i guess intimidate the local population into submission well actually the plan is for them to stand around it ask people an important question ask them to show i.d. the answer to crime isn't a police state sending guys out with automatic weapons and body armor around just to check people's i.d. like it's the berlin wall or something won't do anything a guy who breaks into your house for crystal meth money isn't going to be affected by this only the good average citizens will have to show an armed thug

>> yet, jonathan, there are now four states with only one abortion clinic, mississippi, arkansas, and north and south dakota. this is often because republicans use onerous regulations, regulations, of course, that they deride in every other aspect of governance, but which they apply to prevent countless facilities from qualifying for usage. >> so, for instance, the virginia law that maria teresa pointed out, among the regulations that abortion clinics would have to abide by, abortion clinics would have to be regulated along the lines of a hospital -- a hospital operating room so they would have to have the ventilation system for a sterile environment even though one is not needed to perform an abortion. they would have to have regulated widths for hallways and doors for abortion clinics. and this is another one that is rather interesting, there would be a minimum number of parking spaces required for abortion clinics. so these are all sort of the nitpicky ways that conservatives have used, you know, local laws, state laws, to restrict a woman's right to access to preventative care. >>

congressman from arkansas cotton saying, that he would have voted both speaker boehner plan b on millionaires in the final tax hike and vowed to vote against raising debt limit in two months, absent the massive cuts the president opposes. he voted against gun control, immigration reform. how can they govern with so many members that are determined to show up with concrete -- to say no? >> i haven't read the piece and i have a lot of respect for tom cotton. he served in america combat, an awfully good american. to the point, i personally think it was a mistake not to have supported john boehner's plan b. would have given us the leverage we needed and would have walked off with a better deal than we got. going forward on the spending fights, republicans are united. honestly the president has said himself these things need to be done. he just never has been willing to specify it. on debt ceiling, the president is asking for us what he wouldn't give george bush. he voted against raising the debt ceiling himself when he was in the senate and talked about it being a moral imperative to deal with de
